Knitting in the red dust

I hope you all have a lovely evening tonight. I'll be in my donga, and if I've got any energy (I was at the airport at 4.45am this morning) I'll do some knitting. I've brought the long-neglected edging of the giant throw to work on, and as it's the only thing I have to do, I'll get it finished I hope Mum! Next time I come here I'll bring something more exciting, as long as it's lightweight and not white. I'm liking the suggestion to knit in tweed as red-dirt stains won't be so noticeable.

Despite being the middle of a minesite, this place is pretty stunning. I've got a great view from my room, and a rostered day off on Sunday so hopefully will go out and do some sightseeing.
